Take Hold

All over town is just the sound of confusion
24 hour electric patrol
The crumbling buildings become a conclusion
Inching our way back to the seat of control

The feel of your fingertips in the darkness
Holding my breath for the sound of your voice
Urgency sings with a heavenly softness
With the shape of your shoulder blades saying you don't really have no choice

Take hold of me baby your lips are gonna take me away,
Close your eyes and feel the beat of this town
Take hold of me honey your hips are gonna drive me insane
You know tonight I feel like burning it down
Take hold, all you've gotta do is take hold
Wrap your arms around and take hold

Down on the streets you know it feels like a riot
With the kid on your arm you make a pretty disguise
They sense what you are and they make you deny it
Rebuilding myself ice cold with the sparkle coming from your eyes

We make our escape yeah we breathe underwater
A flicker of heat has got me feeling alone
But I'm just a monkey following orders
Sweet like a siren she's calling me right back where I know is home
